No indictment in New York this week of Trump.
Meaning
No indictment.
Ever.

Liar. Considering the Grand Jury is still taking testimony, including from a Trump lawyer you are either lying or an idiot. Though in your case, they are certainly not mutually exclusive alternatives.

Testimony is over. Might want to review the last witness today.
It was a reminder that the DA is left with a case where his primary witnesses are a hooker and a convicted perjurer in a seven year old case that federal prosecutors walked away from.

If Red is suggesting trump hang himself before the arrest and not after, it might be the best legal advice trump has gotten all year, and that from a guy who is known to eat paste.

Rudy should be ashamed of himself.

Federal prosecutors under the Barr DOJ?

The GOP tried to pick on trans kids only to find they are still the party of trump and trump has always been weaker than trans kids.

Federal prosecutors under the Barr DOJ?

ROFLMAO

Well, no.

The federal prosecutor Southern District of New York that passed on Federal charges against Trump was Audrey Strauss who was first appointed to the District under Jimmy Carter.
She and other prosecutors  did not consider charging Trump at the time because of longstanding Justice Department guidance that a sitting president cannot be indicted. Also, the January 6 riots amid Trump led protests of the 2020 election made a campaign finance matter seem like small potatoes.

The bolded is the big reason why DoJ's decision not to prosecute in 2019 is irrelevant to the decision the NY AG is making, despite your claim otherwise. Also ignored by you: Trump appointed US Attorney for the SD NY Geoffrey Berman Bill Barr intervened, as did other political appointees, to quash the investigation.

What claim? All I did was state facts. Federal prosecutors did not bring charges.

Also ignored by you: Trump appointed US Attorney for the SD NY Geoffrey Berman Bill Barr intervened, as did other political appointees, to quash the investigation.

Berman was never appointed by Trump.  He was designated US Attorney by Jeff Sessions and earned approval by unanimous vote of the Southern District Justices. Berman may have pissed off Trump by investigating  Rudy Giuliani which led to his ouster.  But it certainly was not to quash anything to do with the Cohen kerfuffle. If it was Barr would not have let Audrey Strauss take over. She had the full backing of Berman. Strauss is clearly bi partisan politically and passed on any federal prosecution of Trump.
What Bragg is doing is blatantly political and, if carried out, could backfire on the democrats by electing Trump to another term as Elon Musk has predicted. 

[Hairy Lime]

If the facts and law support charging Trump, and neither you nor I know what the NY DA has - NOT charging Trump is the "blatantly political" path.

LOL
We already know the facts and the law.
So did the federal prosecutors who decided not to prosecute.
What is inexplicable this go around is a prosecutor known for downgrading charges has to UPGRADE a misdemeanor to a felony a campaign finance violation the sort of thing that Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama were fined for, not put on trial.
There is only one reason for an unprecedented indictment of a ex President, it is because the subject is Donald Trump. Even those who hate him, republicans and democrats , see it as the chief democrat strategy of the 2024 Presidential Election.
Otherwise known as Blatant Politics.
But there could be a silver lining.
That strategy could backfire and knock out BOTH  Biden and Trump and we could move on to decent candidates from both parties.
